KARNA: Part One: A Tale from the Mahabharata by Epinomia Comics

Before the great war at Kurukshetra, before the arrows blotted out the sun, a child was set adrift on a river in a basket of reeds. He grew up a charioteer's son, was crowned a king by his enemies, and carried a secret about his own blood that could have ended the war before it began. KARNA is an illustrated retelling of the Mahabharata's most tragic hero, made for readers who have never opened the epic. Each full page of painted art faces a page of story, and every story page carries an authentic verse from the Sanskrit critical edition, printed in the original Devanagari with a clear English translation. This is Part One. It follows Karna from the battlefield back to the secret of his birth: the gift that costs him everything, the teacher he lied to, the friend who made him a king, and the night he spent the one weapon he had been saving for the brother he did not know he had. The book closes with a first look at KOMPASS, the next tale from Epinomia Comics.
